-Character-
Alignment: Good, although it may not seem like it sometimes.
Personality: One word that sums Calypso up: Grumpy. Cal is often bad tempered and moody, and might snap at someone who comes too near. It's rather rare to see Cal fully smile, although smirks, half-smiles, sarcastic smiles, and frowns are common. What would happen if you asked him for help? He would glower at you and tell you to find your own way around.
Although Calypso's bad tempered, he doesn't have a fiery attitude. Cal isn't headstrong and never flames towards anybody. In fact, it's rather the opposite. He's careful with his actions and words, and he's cold and calculating in battle.
Even though Calypso seems like a dark creature, he really isn't. Cal can make a loyal friend after a while of getting used to you. He isn't always helpful, and he doesn't cheer anyone up (in fact, he may make someone feel worse), but he's someone you should turn to when you feel betrayed by the world.
Calypso is also blunt. He doesn't sugarcoat his words, or tell only part of a bad truth. He doesn't lie to make things seem better. If there's something he doesn't like and you ask for his opinion, he'll let you know. If you're ugly, he straight out tell you that you are if you ask him. He's completely honest, although sometimes you may not want to know the truth from him, as it might hurt your feelings.
Calypso is independent. If he's told to live alone for a week in a dungeon, he'll probably be able to pull it off. If he doesn't have any friends, that's fine with him.
His soft spot? Little kids. Whatever species they are, Calypso has a soft spot for the young ones. It's surprising to see Cal dark and grumpy one moment, and then kind and playful the next when he meets a young Pokémon.
Bio: Calypso was born and raised in Onut Village. He was practically a grumpy Pokémon at birth. His family was a normal family. A mother, a father, and a big sister. All of them are dark furred except for Cal's mother. At five years old, Calypso's older sister fell in love with a Luxray and built a relationship with him. Cal and the Luxray's little sister became friends later after they fell in love.
As Calypso grew up, he was shunned by the local Pokémon of the village. Cal never really cared. Only Felicity stayed as his friend, one of the only Pokémon to form a bond with him.
Village life was uneventful, calm... And boring. Calypso was growing restless, and there was nothing in the village to amuse him. Besides, it was rather cold there.
His life changed when an Exploration Team dropped in for a visit. They told marvelous stories of mystery dungeons and missions, and soon after they left, Cal was having dreams of being in an Exploration Team. Onut Village was too calm for him, and he needed something more. His Shinx friend agreed with him, and they plotted to form an Exploration Team together.
Calypso's family was happy when Cal told them of his plans. They had noticed his restlessness, and his company was never truly pleasant anyways. They even bought a hut for him and his friend in the Flower Hill to dwell in.
And thus a journey begins...
